Is it for you?
Where this design lands on the numbers a shopper trusts — read straight from her own ratios.
Her heavy displacement on a moderate beam gives 32 — a sea-kindly motion in a seaway.
1.83 — just under the 2.0 offshore line; her beam is modest for her weight.
315 — heavy for her waterline, built to carry stores and ride steadily.
15.7 — moderate power for her weight; steady, all-round performance.
45% of her weight is ballast — stiff, standing up well to her sails.
A capable cruiser that sits just inside the offshore line — coastal work with real passages in her.
